The Low Dow...n

Hey everyone!

So I approached my friend Dow about doing a collaboration for the blog because I've never had pictures taken professionally before. Dow is an old friend of mine (our friendship consists of yelling at each other and making fun of each other for the weirdest things...but that's how you know it's golden, right??) and I knew I'd be comfortable figuring out how to stand in front of a camera with him.

It was definitely a learning experience for the both of us. Dow has never had to pose anyone and I have no posing experience! It felt incredibly uncomfortable to stand so vulnerable in front of the camera but thankfully Dow was great at making me laugh. Needless to say, it was a big learning curve for the both of us. A majority of the pictures were of me posing like Run DMC in my outfits.

I have to give many props to all the influencers that make posing look so easy. I learned it takes a lot of self-awareness and a willingness to just let loose to make it look so perfect.

Despite my poor posing and ridiculously cold weather, I think the photos turned out great! I can't wait to do more with Dow and share with you more photos. I'm thinking velour tracksuit with a huge ghetto blaster for the next time....hmmmmmm....

Thanks so much for taking the time to check out this post. I really do appreciate everyone for coming back and helping me grow this blog.
